[X360] DOA4's Nicole & ilovebees!
Quote:
bungie.net article:
..."we created Spartan 458 – Nicole. And she's quite a lady. If you define "lady" as ferociously violent killing machine.
Nicole was born in the year 2531 in the city of New Legaspi on Mars. At six years of age she was abducted by agents of the Office of Naval Intelligence and conscripted into the Spartan II program. The Spartan II program was the UNSC's highly successful military project to augment and hone perfect soldiers.
SPARTAN-458's unit was preparing for a classified mission on Nassau Station when the ONI stealth ship Apocalypso tumbled into real-space – being carried along in the wake of a freak slipspace anomaly. The anomaly intersected Nassau Station; creating a semi-stable "bubble" in the space/time continuum on its way back to the 21st Century.
For the time being Nicole-458 is trapped in the 21st century; guarding Nassau Station's secrets with all but lethal force (she realizes killing someone in the past could have dire consequences), waiting for the "bubble" to collapse and hopefully returning her to the year 2552.

Nicole came to Earth the same way Melissa did! CANON, HERE WE COME!

Holy Crap!
A shipmate lost in space! Quick someone call Melissa!
This is very cool! I hate to bring up the word again, but does this bring ILB into the 12inch bore of the Halo Cannon?
I find this quote interesting

Well it puts Nicole in that same slippery slope of "how does this fit in" that ILB has.
If she gets referenced at all in any future Halo literature, then I'd say it's all up there.

Well, it puts ILB into canon in the same way it puts Dead or Alive into Halo canon, hehe. Maybe all that DOATEC stuff with the clones of Kasumi was a precursor to the flash cloning technology in the Halo universe.

I think what he meant to say was that he was going to kick your ASS on live tomorrow in DOA4.....
I'll be picking it up tomorrow too..

Bungie said there would be a grab or throw that would put the other player in a "sticky" situation. I didn't know that they would show pics of it only a week after it came out. cool

Bungie put up some sticky action back on the 14th in an Update .
There's a ton of other things from like Ign n stuff, plus some artwork by Pinkuh inspired by you're interested.
Click this link and just do a search for Nicole, Hbo has had pretty much everything covered, plus a video or two of her in action. Definetly worth checking out.
